This is a very easy to build kit. If you just want to put it together, it should take 30 minutes or less. The hood does not open and there is no detailing on the body. I built this one to do a test paint job. It was cheap and I figured if I messed it up I hadn't ruined a well detailed kit. The custom paint job worked out very well and as soon as I get some detailing done, I will post pictures to go with this review.
